The Gentle- men in Favor of the Motion attempted to support it on the general Ground that what was acquired or conquered at the common Expence ought to enure to the common Benefit : that the Lands in Question, altho' they might be comprehended within the Limits of the State of New York (which however was not acknowledged) was not the property of the State, that being either in the Natives or by Eight of Conquest in the United States. The Motion was nevertheless after some far- ther desultory De...bate rejected : but from what drop'd in the Debate we had Reason to apprehend that several who were opposed to the Motion founded their Opposition on the Neces- sity of a Reconciliation with the Indians, against which, they imagined the Spirit of the Motion would militate — and we had a few Days after a convincing proof that an Idea prevailed 140 Copies of Documents Relatinb to the that this and some other States ought to be divested of part of their Territory for the Benefit of the United States, when a Member afforded us the perusal of a Eesolution for which he intended to move the House purporting "that all the " Lands within the Limits of any of the United States, hereto- " fore grantable by the King of Great Britain whilst these " States (then Colonies) were in the Dominion of that prince, " and which had not been granted to Individuals should be con- " sidered as the joint property of the United States and disposed " of by Congress for the Benefit of the whole Confederacy." The Necessity and propriety of such an Arrangement was strenuously insisted upon, in private Conversation, and even supported by Gentlemen who represented States in Circum- stances seemingly similar to ours with Respect to the Object of the intended Resolution.
